The Chronic Edge Unleashed
Illness is not a Burden E1 - Autism in the Workplace
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Welcome to the first episode of our new series: ILLNESS IS NOT A BURDEN - Autism in the Workplace.
There are approx 1 MILLION people with Autism in the United Kingdom, with an expected 700,000 too another million awaiting diagnosis, from that pool of just under 2 Million people, it may be a shock but less than half a million of them are in employment, and those of them that are, may be in roles well below their capabilities.
But why?
This session gives a snapshot of a wider problem, with the intention to help people and companies understand the benefits of hiring an autistic individual and help those with autism unleash their self-worth and talents using real-data and practical tools.
As this is launch week, we will be adding our next episode on Friday, and then moving to Tuesday weekly for Illness is not a burden.
Our next episode is Navigating the workplace as an Autistic.
- Please note, not all autistic people are the same, even with the same traits, our experiences differ, these sessions are taken from my personal experience as a late diagnosed person with autism and research.
- If you enjoy the show, please like or share, I'd really appreciate it.
Thank you for listening, my goal to help 1 MILLION people understand that Illness is NOT a burden once they unleash their edge.
If you like the show share us on social media and help others discover their edge.
This is not medical or financial advice, you should always check with a professional and gather your own research, this is purely to get the conversation started.
